dove hunting

well a week from today dove season starts in the Central zone. I will scale back my hobbying for 2 months and just see my regulars. So how many providers do we have in our little corner of the world that enjoy a morning or an evening in the field doing a bit of bird hunting. Im betting we have a number of hobbyists that enjoy dove hunting.....be safe and shoot stright...

I do a lot. Will be doing some bird hunting. I thought the North Zone started this week and South and Central started the 3rd week of September. Memory is going for sure.

Already got license and a lot of cases of shells bought when on sale during year. Since I travel a lot do some day hunts during the week, nice and quiet when weekenders not out. Time to think and ponder about the next girl to see.

I enjoy going out and grabbing a quick limit! My family owns a large dove hunting ranch outside of SA!

Been out to choke canyon and had fun. Bagged my limit in a few hours. Already got my remington 1100 ready to go. Can't wait!!!!!

Birds and fish are high priority. South side has some good places. Might hit a honey hole in south zone for that special white wing weekend.

such a good thread need to go grab a license and i'm set. got a place just shy of North Sa but get to see real action when south zone opens if the birds cooperate.

Got my O/U's, Winchester 101 and Fausti, ready with plenty of shells ...Been seeing a good amount of birds at our ranch ...Looking forward to the Central Zone opening on Monday the 1st. Going there today and tomorrow to get the house ready for family coming there to stay and hunt...Fun Times...

Bought a new 12gauge Remington 2 weeks ago. Il be doing my dove hunting in the rio grande valley along side the rio grande! Good luck gents!

sounds fun. i got my first gun from a hobbyist, and we've gone to the range like five times.
and ive been wanting to go hunting, so if theres space for me, id love to go.=)

I'm looking for a central zone day hunt for 4 this coming Mon. More than willing to pay the going rate. PM me if you've got room or know of someone who does.

Ha! What sucks is if you hunt south of I-10 east, you can hear all the fun being had by the central zone boundary(north of I-10). By the time the next week comes around for the south zone to open, doves have learned to either fly high or hug the ground making it more of a challenge. Glad there isn't a season for Eurasian collared doves so far I don't think they are protected by hunting or migratory bird act.

I've never dove hunted, never Evan ate one. Lol but I love deer hunting. Not a trophy hunter, (don't get me wrong I would drop one in a heart beat) just go for the meat. I need to find a place for this year.

This was last years haul on opening day of Special White Wing South Zone. Looks to be another good year this year also as long as weather doesnt show up on the 6th.
19 out 21 got limits in about 30 minutes. Was rather crazy
